The path through the Italian campaign

After landing in Salerno, the first step is to break out of the pocket around the city by defeating the German companies nearby. Then you can tackle the new objective of breaking through the Volturno Line. This objective must be completed before you can take Ortona in Operation Morning Glory or eliminate the German railway artillery at Anzio.

The Battle of Monte Cassino

To break through the Gustav Line, you must win the Battle of Monte Cassino. To do this, you must first achieve some objectives:

  • Complete two of the following objectives:
    • Conquer an airfield near Monte Cassino.
    • Perform a reconnaissance mission over Monte Cassino.
    • Conquer Ortona.
    • Conquer Anzio.

A good airfield for the reconnaissance route is Pignataro Maggiore, north of Naples, but the airfield near Aquino is also suitable. The last main mission, the Winter Line, can be started once you have completed the Battle of Monte Cassino.
